Phrases like "Wife her up", "put a ring on it" and sometimes "mary she/them/him" are often said as an ironic "damm they're good" more than a literal suggestion that they should propose
Sometimes you just meet people and you just get a very good vibe for them and then you say things like that. It doesn't actually mean you're going to proceed but would probably scare them off.
Get the cream cheese danishes in the bakery, if they ever have them. So good. Fuck the cherry and mixed variety boxes. They have some vanilla ice cream that's really good, too.
I definitely miss when my family had membership there. Yes it absolutely looked like a warehouse with how high things were stacked, but the products are worth it and the free samples were always good to kit me.
Costco is amazing, but you go there to buy what they have, not what you necessarily want like other stores. Every product they carry is tested for quality before they buy, they only buy products that they can obtain a good value for. So you don't have to worry about anything you buy, even if it sucks, they have a no question return policy. If the brand you wanted isn't at Costco, it's likely because the alternative they stock is better.
We did a case study about Costco and the amount of product and supply chain research they do is crazy.
I read a write up in consumer reports about profit margins for various stores, and Costco had consistently lower profit margins than the competition. They make most of their money on membership fees.
Well they also pay their employees well, or at least used to. I remember being in the job hunt like almost 2 decades ago and they were paying 2.5x minimum wage for their lowest cashier/cart person positions.
I just looked it up and they haven't kept up with inflation unfortunately... Although neither has some of the minimum wages.
I'm hoping that the original author of the image (likely a snap or snap story) was kidding. Perhaps they were already together a long time before this and it's just an inside joke. Otherwise, the "..." at the end signals disappointment in what I must say seems like an awesome first date experience? Girl doesn't want to go to a super expensive restaurant, is cute, and isn't afraid of eating pizza without cutlery in front of her date? First impression: She seems awesome.
Nope, I literally got pizza without a membership yesterday. The pharmacy is also required to be open to the public, and is consistently one of the cheapest in my area. Just tell the door person that you’re there for the pharmacy or the pizza, and they’ll wave you through without any hassle.
She's a keeper.
Wants Costco for a first date? Absolute keeper. Loads of green flags there.
Oh yeah she gets a ring. Wife her up OP.
I assumed from context that this was their first date, and maybe I'm old or old fashioned, but due to that my thought process went
For sure! Call her back!
Maybe too early for that?
You assumed it was a first date because it says that it is one.
You're right, I should comment on things immediately after waking up less frequently.
Or more frequently, if that's more fun for all concerned 🤪
From now on, any time I wake up, I will immediately message you my very likely incoherent thoughts for your entertainment.
In your hypnagogic state you experienced extremely short-term source amnesia.

I'm putting a Kirkland diamond ring on that finger.
Don’t bother buying one though. I got the 12 pack and still have like 5 left, I can certainly spare one.
That's a winner. Good pizza, hot dogs and cheesecake. AND good prices.
Y'all get cheesecake? My Costco doesn't have that :(

Ikea and drown your sorrow in swedish meatballs.
Mine doesn't even have beer. Still worth it.
Plus they have a club card (because I sure as hell dont).
Wife material right there.
I married a woman that enjoys the dining experience at that members only club and we've been at it for over twenty years now.
Hold onto her, and those discount vouchers
I'd be on the knee then and there.
I like how it's this astride a wall of unanimous commitments to marriage.
you made me splort coffee through my nose. thank you, stranger.
I love to serve.
i mean, if its a shitty date then at least you got a slice of pizza and it only cost you $1.50
shiii, two of us, we're getting a whole pie.... 1.25 a slice and we get leftovers.
Treasure this woman.
A keeper.
Wifey material right there
You better walk your ass to aisle 15 for a pallet of engagement rings
"Welcome to Costco, I love you"
She's not fucking around. Put a ring on it.
They are on isle 67
Kirkland Signature ring!

They don’t carry the hot fries chips 😭
"kit" 😭 tiny fuzzlord liked the snackies. i think i'm manic
I have family in Chicago and I asked them for pizza recommendations when I was on vacation there and they said Costco😡
Seriously though! You HAD family in Chicago, but after that recommendation... no you don't 😉
Sam's Club is stupid cheap, don't have to be a member.
"$8 for a whole pizza and a monster Coke!"
And your date is a cute, young, Asian girl? I am not seeing the issue here.

The restaurant isn't members only. You can go to the deli without a membership.
It is now. They changed the rules about a year ago.

Looks like the food court thing isn't everywhere, but it is at my local Costcos and lots of others.They changed the policy in 2024.
Pharmacy, eye doc, hearing aids and liquor are all allowed here for non members, but that's all state law.
Wait..... You mean you have to have a membership for pizza and a drink now? Really? What about Sam's club?
Yup. Not sure if it's company wide, but it's true at all my local Costco's.
I don't have a Sams club nearby, so I can't speak to that.

That or five nights at Denny's?
She does barely look 18. Might be "good" image taking, but still. Bit weird taking her for a date. Feels more like a family picture.
Fun fact: people below the age of 18 are allowed to, and often do, go on dates.
Fun fact: people who don't look their age exist. In my case, at 18 I looked like a 15-year-old.
plus she us asian, that girl is over 18
